You're listening to

the best of of the blend back program.

Who and what is really behind the pandemic?

Who profits from the pandemic?

What are the true origins of the virus?

There have been disturbing revelations about the vaccine and why it's being pushed so hard.

And it's time perhaps that we ask dangerous, forbidden questions surrounding COVID-19 and the pandemic.

Big tech and the government are doing everything they can to stifle the truth.

Because

if we did start to ask these questions, we would no longer tolerate the draconian measures put into effect.

This is the reason to watch next Wednesday night's two-hour live commercial-free special

done by me, the

probably the most dangerous chalkboard I have ever done.

One of the biggest reveals is the federal government's troublesome connection with Big Pharma, a huge conflict of interest, but also a disturbing breach of trust between the American people and the government elected by them.

Most disturbing of all is the trail of emails showing a cover-up executed by a coronavirus cabal.

And it is a cabal.

They were more interested in protecting their legacy and their money than saving lives.

This is next Wednesday, November 17th, 8 p.m.

Blazetv.com slash Glenn.

I urge you to watch this.

We're putting it on YouTube.

I doubt it will make it for the first 15 minutes, but maybe it is.

It is a very important special.

Watch it with a friend.

You can be a subscriber at Blaze TV and make sure that you see it and have it.

But we urge you to watch it.

I'll watch it with a bunch of people so you can discuss it afterwards.

Following the special, Steve Dace will give his unthrottled reaction

and your Too Dangerous for Big Tech Questions live only next Wednesday night on Blaze TV.

From Blaze TV and radio is Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed.

Hi, Pat.

Hi, Glenn.

I'm excited about your special.

It sounds fun.

You know, i've seen the youtube rules uh and they are about five pages very fine print five pages of what can be said what can't be said yeah we have to edit everything for youtube almost every day oh yeah almost every day yeah so i mean it is there is no such thing as unfiltered speech did you see what twitter was doing yesterday for kyle rittenhouse No, they were suppressing anyone who said he's clearly innocent.

They were suppressing that.

I mean, there is no such thing as freedom of speech anymore in America.

There's just not.

You can't say that is the public square.

Social media is the public square.

It's tough because it's still their website.

So that's why they are able to do these things legally.

But we are not the public square, even though we want it to be the public square, I guess.

We are moving towards the metaverse.

Yeah, no, look,

I mean, there's arguments to be made.

A lot of people make them about that it should be thought of as the public square.

Legally, right now, it's not, though.

And that's why they can do all this stuff.

I just want you to know.

Do you have something you want to talk about, Pat?

Because I'd love to get your reaction on something, but do you have something you want to bring up?

No, you can.

Okay.

So are you familiar with the metaverse?

Yeah.

Okay.

So everybody thinks, oh,

that's Facebook.

Why are they metaverse?

That's ridiculous.

Blah, blah, blah.

No, no, no.

We are so far ahead on the metaverse and you don't even know it.

I want to tell you that on Wednesday,

the World Economic Forum held the great narrative, and they've been promoting this.

And what I'm going to read to you is on their website.

Now, remember, the World Economic Forum just partnered with the Biden administration to bring these things back, to bring these things into America.

We are now partnered with 20 different companies,

public-private partnership, and the World Economic Forum.

This is Build Back Better.

So the Great Narrative was the

conference that is happening this week

to design the future.

Now, I want you to just listen.

This is how they opened it.

Design the future, the story for the future.

In order to shape the future, you have to imagine the future, design the future, and then execute.

Over the next two days, they will decide how we decide, how we execute the great narrative.

But the great narrative is, what is tomorrow going to look like globally?

The world has gone through a very difficult time.

People are now looking for transformation, but the world needs a new blueprint, a new narrative.

Why?

Because 1% own more wealth than 7 billion.

Almost half the population lives in under $6

a day because the last 60 years were the warmest on record.

We can't afford to waste more time on denial of climate change because our digital world will be as important as our physical world.

By 2025, there will be five times more devices than people on this planet.

Because both to inspire hope and action, government, first and foremost, are in the business of installing hope.

Governments are instituted among men to

protect these rights.

I'm sorry, I thought it was install hope.

Imagine what role the government should play to install this new narrative.

A whole government approach is not enough.

All of humanity approach is needed.

Collectively, we are the author of this new chapter.

The future belongs to those who can imagine it and implement it.

How can we design the government to be future citizen ready?

How to lead the world into sustainable and a better future?

What will be the great narrative?

When we look at the world today, difficulties shape the future.

Three obstacles.

First, After the pandemic, people have become much more self-centered.

Really, that's a big...

What role is, what is the role of government?

Looking at our current position in human history, we sit at the second of the first minute of the first day of the first year.

Human evolution to the wheel to today with technology.

In 50 years, it will be totally different.

The pace we've grown has been massive, but we are putting our life onto one platform.

The future will be based on the platform we design now.

Does anybody think so far this is a little spooky?

The job is to bring people and humility together.

Hmm, and humility.

How is this great government going to make us find humility?

Technology,

let's see, the job is to bring people and humility together.

Technology

and to bring better for our humanity.

Obviously translated.

How do you see the global future collaboration?

Hopefully in optimistic terms.

We know the world isn't inclusive or sustainable enough, but we cannot forget the amount of progress made in 50 years.

We know the tensions like USA and China, but we have always have common interests.

They want stronger cooperation between the US and China, including environmental issues.

Don't leave it alone to governments.

Business and science need to play a part.

Combine the common interest.

Make short-term compromises for long-term change.

We are in a new transformation of humankind.

If you want to change humanity, we must change the world.

Let us use our energy to create a great narrative for humankind in the next two days.

Take our own fate into our own hands.

And who's that from?

The World Economic Forum and the Great Reset.

Is that not freaking terrifying?

Yeah.

Incredible.

I mean, they do seem they're much further along than they are.

Hey, well, Facebook's changing their name.

You know, it's a lot.

No.

It's a lot further along than that.

This is so far along, and we are not invited to the table.

Humanity is not invited to the table.

Just our overlords are invited to the table, and they will decide for us.

This is the scariest thing I've ever seen, because it's not just America.

This is the world.

Everybody's on board with it.

Yeah, they are playing for the world.

And they're using the same verbiage, too.

They're all doing the

better thing.

Oh, yeah.

Which is the great reset.

Yeah.

And by the way,

I just want to say this.

We're looking for, let's see, we know the tensions like USA and China, but we have common interests.

We want stronger cooperation USA and China, including environmental issues.

Don't leave it alone to the governments.

Combine the common interest.

Make short-term compromises for long-term change.

Now let me play you what John Kerry said yesterday about China and the Uyghurs.

How in your several months of meetings behind the scenes with China did you bring up some of those very contentious issues such as the use of forced labor in Xinjiang for building solar panels.

How did you address it and how did you kind of overcome that in reaching this final well we're honest we're honest about the differences and we certainly know what they are and we've articulated them and but that's not my lane here.

That's my job is to be the climate guy.

You also had Nancy Pelosi say we have to get climate change done

and we can't get bogged down with the Uyghur slaves.

John Kerry is currently fighting legislation

to ban anything made by slaves in China.

This is the cooperation.

This is the kind of

short-term compromises that will show us in the future

a whole race of people have been wiped out.

If you haven't gotten yourself a rectack yet, what are you waiting for?

I actually have two.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

One in my underground lair, just in case they start coming.

Oh, yeah.

I'll be grilling and smoking in the bunker.

Anyway,

you can make great, great food.

RekTech, it will grill, it will smoke, it will even bake.

It is the best in the grilling game.

Smart grill technology, it tracks its own cooking, keeps the heat even all throughout.

While you're monitoring from an app on your phone or in a device, not missing any of the fun.

In other words, RecTech does all the work.

You get all the credit.

It's fantastic.

Fire up the computer or heck do it from your phone.

Order a Rec Tech for the holidays.

No better way to enjoy it.

This is the best of the Glenbeck program.

Mr.

Bill O'Reilly

from billo'reilly.com.

Tell me, sir, the biggest story of the week.

Well, the populist story is the written house situation.

As far as what's important to the United States,

it's the battle between Biden and Trump over the January 6th documents in the National Archive.

So which one do you want to handle, Beck?

Well, I think we should handle the one you think is the biggest story.

You know, it just depends on how you're looking at your country.

So, the Rittenhouse story is over.

He's not guilty.

And it's just another example of how the media convicts people without any knowledge of what happened.

Everybody ran him on ties, including me.

I'm sure you did.

Yep, yep.

Of all these far-left

people convicting the 17-year-old, then 17 years old.

And still doing it, honestly.

And Twitter today is suppressing people who are saying he's innocent.

I did not know that.

See, I'm not in that world, that world of Twitter and Facebook and all that.

And that is a very corrupting force in America.

Yeah.

Seeing that most people get their news from Twitter, Facebook, et cetera.

And so once you replace reality with unreality,

so then your life is going to careen, if you do that in your personal life, it's going to careen and

collapse.

And now, on a national basis,

we have that coming too, because as you just said, many, many people, they don't use standard news agencies anymore.

And they're smart not to because almost all of them are corrupt.

So

Meadows, let's switch to the other story.

Meadows says now he is not going to cooperate with the January 6th committee because they are battling over the executive privilege.

You know, it's a kangaroo court.

They're saying if he doesn't testify today, he'll be held in contempt of Congress.

And I think he's pretty fine with that.

I hold them in contempt.

But

what do you think is happening there?

And what is this really all about?

Well, Bec, as you know, because you've known me a long time, I'm essentially a reporter.

All right.

I mean, I'm a blabber mouth and an analyst and all that, but my career is based on reportage.

So when I saw this,

this is about Biden versus Trump.

This is mono a mano.

So Biden basically says, if you're a former president, you don't have executive privilege.

You don't have it.

And I'm going to write an order that says you don't have it.

And I'm going to go into every nook and cranny I can to find out exactly what you said to all of your advisors while you were in the White House.

So everybody understands.

And then

Trump says, no, I do have executive privilege and you can't do that.

And I'm going to file a lawsuit, which is, he's done.

And then late last night, the federal court stayed the Biden action.

Okay.

Which I predicted.

Why did I predict that?

Why did O'Reilly predict that?

Because I actually did some reporting back.

Did you know

that on the second day

he was president Barack Obama signed an executive order

it is 13489

and that executive order says

that presidents who leave the White House continue to have executive privilege and all of their documents contained in the National Archives are sealed Are secure.

Did you know that?

I did not know that.

Okay.

I thought it was.

Nobody reported on it.

Nobody looked.

Nobody cares

about what the reality of the situation is.

So look, I thought...

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Before you go on,

I thought that was

like that all the time, that, you know, the papers were sealed.

I guess the Sandy Berger thing should have told me the difference.

Why should they be open to everyone?

A president of the United States has the right to private counsel.

It's just like you and your lawyer or your doctor.

Okay?

It's a right to have private conversations because many of those conversations are, well, why don't we consider this?

Why don't we do that?

And it never comes to fruition.

But the point of the matter is that here we have two presidents, Biden and Trump.

Biden is trying to destroy Trump.

There's no doubt in my mind.

It's personal.

He feels threatened.

Biden is doing so badly that Trump is gaining momentum.

So Biden's trying to destroy him.

and wants to go in and look at every private conversation that Trump had in four years and try to find something that he can feed to the New York Times.

Okay?

That's what this story is all about.

But the real outrage of the story is my little news agency, billorilly.com, all right, a very small agency, could find this information and no one else can?

Because no one else cares, Beck.

Now, I'm not putting you in that category.

I'm just saying that

the real, the corporate news agencies with budgets of $100 million,

they don't have researchers that can go in and look at it.

Of course they do.

They're not curious.

So and they're not looking for that angle on the story.

So wait a minute, Bill.

So he put in an executive order that said it's all private, right?

Obama.

Obama did.

The most important thing of this executive order, again, if people want to look it up, it's 13489,

is that President Obama

clearly stated

that past presidents have executive privilege.

So then why did you say you knew the court was going to rule in this case?

Because I knew about this order.

And so the federal court can't override Obama's executive order.

Can't do that.

That has to be done on a constitutional basis.

Was Barack Obama wrong in this?

Was this an unconstitutional executive order?

Why didn't Biden, because you can rescind executive orders, why didn't Biden just rescind that order?

Who knows?

But he didn't.

It's still on the books.

And the Biden people don't know about it because, again, nobody looks.

Nobody cares.

Well, we're going to do this.

You're going to do that.

All right.

It's like the Remain in Mexico executive order under Trump.

Okay, Biden said, ah, I'm throwing it out.

And a judge goes, federal judge says, well,

you have to go through a process.

You just can't throw it out.

And therefore, today, the Remain in Mexico policy exists.

It's there.

That's the law.

It's not being followed, but yes, you're exactly right.

It's not being followed.

But my point is that we're all in great jeopardy, all of us.

because we're now living in a country that doesn't care about the truth and the facts.

And let's get back to Rittenhouse.

So all of these people on The View and Morning Joe and the usual suspects, all right, people who have just no credibility, they don't know what happened to this kid.

And I said that to my audience from the jump.

The only thing I know about Kyle Rittenhouse at the time,

when he ventured into Wisconsin with an illegal rifle, and he could be convicted on the illegal rifle.

Okay?

The only thing I know is that his parents should not have allowed him to do that.

That's all I know.

Bad parenting.

You know?

And so I am not going to speculate about the life of a fellow human being.

I'm not going to convict him.

All right.

And

let me rephrase what I just said because I don't want to convict the parents.

He's a 17-year-old kid.

It may not have been bad parenting.

It was just a bad choice on his part.

He's 17.

I said the parents should not have allowed him to go,

but I don't know his circumstances.

Yes, I don't either.

Okay, so if he's living in your house and he goes, hey, mom and dad, I'm going to take this rifle and go into a riot situation in Kenosha.

I say no.

Me as the dad go, I don't think so.

Right, exactly right.

Exactly right.

So now, do you think the press is going to

actually

support a verdict?

I mean, assuming that the verdict comes back as

not guilty, will the press accept that?

Yeah,

they have to accept it because they look like clowns now.

No, no, they really don't.

I mean, they're already saying this judge is out of control.

This judge is.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

That's a low-level

way down

the chain of journalism.

You're not hearing that from the Washington Post, you're not hearing that from these other people because all they care about is their own career.

I'm hearing it from CNN.

Well, that's low-level reinforces the low-level.

All right,

this is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

John Ziegler is on the phone.

He is a senior columnist at Mediite.

He is a controversial guy, both left and right, because he calls them as he sees them.

I think he's one of the braver guys.

I think he's also a little suicidal

in his approach,

but he is also one of the only people I know that when he says, this is what I believe, I know that's exactly what he believes.

And that is very rare and worth a lot today.

Hello, John.

How are you?

Wow, Glenn, you know, I think the main reason I come on your show is just to hear your different intros to me.

Well, that one was really good.

My wife would agree with just about everything you just said.

Yeah, especially the suicidal in your life.

Right, exactly.

That was the part that I was thinking about.

Yeah, okay.

So, John, you wrote a great article after 10 years of investigating the Penn State scandal.

Here's what the case taught me about modern media.

And I can't believe media or

mediite actually let you print this.

But they did.

That's a story.

Yeah, I know, I know.

They have,

we're not going to re-litigate the Sandusky thing.

You say, you know, I did a podcast with hours and hours and hours with the benefit of

hindsight.

But

you want to use that to show us, for instance, let's compare it now and show us COVID.

Right.

No, you're even on exactly why I think this story is relevant.

Although I will say, you know, here we are on the 10th anniversary of the Penn State scandal.

And for those that don't remember, this is the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal that resulted in the firing of the great Joe Paterno and three Penn State administrators going to jail.

And Sandusky's going to almost certainly die in prison.

I mean, that story in and of itself was a huge story.

And the fact that we have rewritten history and told you what really did happen in our epic podcast with the benefit of hindsight is, I think, inherently relevant.

And in a rational world, it would be relitigated by the news media.

But being realistic, I think, John, I want you to know,

you know,

people like you who speak the truth that is unpopular, they are always recognized much later, usually when they're dead.

But

I think your podcast and all of your reporting on this, I think it will turn that story around eventually.

I would like to believe that.

It probably will be after I'm dead.

I'm preparing my nine-year-old daughter to dance who eventually take the reins on that.

But look, Glenn, I I appreciate that more than you know.

And let me do the last thing on my podcast.

I mean, people who have no interest in this story find it to be the most amazing podcast that they've ever encountered.

I mean, it's gripping, it's entertaining.

I have a female co-host who was a television sportscaster here in Los Angeles, who's now

a professor of media at Syracuse University named Liv Sabib.

It's an amazing ride, and we have proven this case beyond any comprehension and any shadow of the doubt.

And you will learn so much about humanity in the news media, and I believe you will learn how we got into this COVID mess because a lot of what I wrote in this media

column relates directly to COVID and and the main parts of that are what happens when everyone gets locked in emotionally and professionally into a narrative in no time

where we don't know the true facts and where everyone is in a panic, a moral panic in this case involving child sex abuse.

We all lose our minds and then the experts see an opportunity to

forward their agenda.

And once the story is written, and it can happen in only a couple of days, and that's what happened in Penn State, a couple of days, 10 years ago, we were told a nonsensical story about Jerry Sinovsky having raped a boy in a shower and a coach telling Joe Paterno, and he basically doing nothing in Penn State covering up for this former assistant coach.

That story is absurd.

Now, sometimes absurd stories happen, but they come with evidence this one did not in fact if you listen to the podcast you know we've proven what actually did happen and it's not that but once everyone's invested there's no going back and I guess one of the more amazing elements of both this story and with regard to COVID is that when the facts come in now and they're unequivocal they're overwhelming no one seems to care anymore.

No one will admit they were wrong.

Now as a married guy, I'm well trained in admitting when I'm wrong.

Even when I don't really think I am.

Correct.

So I truly do not understand

when did we stop admitting that when more information comes in, we can go, oh, wait a minute.

When do we rush to judgment, especially when this keeps happening?

It's as if Duke La Crosse never happened.

It's as if Faranos never happened.

It's as if Jussie Smollett never happened.

The Covington kids never never happened.

We're seeing it with Kyle Rittenhouse.

It's time and time again.

And the media never learns their lesson mostly because they're never held accountable, Glenn.

Well, I think they actually kind of are.

I mean,

the Blaze,

you know, our streaming service and, you know, with YouTube, we beat the CNN ratings.

Many nights, many nights.

It is crazy how low their ratings are going.

However, you're right.

They just think that's because we're all stupid.

So

they're never called into question

on what they actually did and what they reported.

And you can see that again with

the White House now and the Russia hoax.

We know where that came from, and we know the media participated in it.

But no one ever gets fired.

I guess that's the thing.

That's the whole point.

Yes, as institutions, they are suffering in the ratings.

I think that that a large part of that is because of lack of trust.

I mean there's this narrative going that everyone's turning off television news in comparison to last year because there's no election.

Well that's part of it.

But I think what happened with COVID destroyed what was ever left of their credibility in a large portion of the population.

But let me give you a really, let me give you a really good example that, again, is from the Penn State case, but I think you guys are going to enjoy this because this shows, this relates in some weird ways to COVID.

The Dr.

Fauci of this case was a woman by the name of Sarah Gannum.

Now, you guys fit on this narrative and tell me how absurd this is.

So we were told 10 years ago that the woman who broke this case was a 24-year-old Penn State graduate by the name of Sarah Gannum.

24 years old.

I don't know about you guys, but when I was 24, I didn't know crap about crap.

I was a television sportscaster, an NBC affiliate in Ohio and West Virginia.

I can't, in retrospect, believe they even let me on the air at 24.

I agree.

I'm the same way.

All right.

So she's 24 years old and immediately the media says, we found our expert, our Dr.

Fauci.

Tell us what happened in this story, Sarah.

So she leads everybody in this panic down this path that turns out to be completely absurd.

Now let's follow her narrative from there.

She wins the Pulitzer Prize because the media loves this narrative.

You know, a semi-attractive Penn State graduate female brings down the entire Penn State football program.

Oh my God, they're salivating over this.

She never writes a book about the case, which is impossible as a Pulitzer Prize winner.

It's impossible, but there's a reason why she didn't write a book because she can't, not because she's just a bad writer, but because her narrative would get her in big trouble about what really actually happened.

But she she gets a great gig at CNN.

So she goes from a tiny little paper in in central Pennsylvania to CNN where she does nothing, nothing.

The only thing she gets known for are having snowballs thrown at her in a snowstorm she's covering and giggling on set with Wolf Litzer while covering a horrendous abuse case.

So then then she gets, I believe, let go by CNN.

She doesn't just suddenly retire at the age of 30.

We never hear from her again.

She's an assistant professor in Florida.

Now on the 10th anniversary, she comes back to do a podcast about the Sandusky case.

She's claiming in her podcast that she is a new Sandusky victim who died of an overdose in 2018 because of their trauma of the Sandusky abuse.

Did this person ever claim to be a Sandusky accuser when they were alive?

No.

They were not a trial accuser.

They were not a settlement accuser.

I have all the settlement documents.

Their family was a huge Sandusky supporter.

They die of an overdose in 2018.

By the way, Sandusky's in prison.

I doubt there was any abuse going on at that time.

And then

after this guy's death in 2018, a year later, there are numerous articles about his overdose because the family is trying to get media coverage for his cause.

A year later, still no mention of Jerry Sandusky by the parents.

Then all of a sudden, just before the statute of limitations comes in, they get the most unscrupulous lawyer in this case and they sue Penn State for a lot of money with zero record of this guy ever claiming to be a Sandusky accuser.

And then the media reports on Sarah Gannam's podcast that these are, this is a Sandusky victim.

You can be a Sandusky victim

without ever even claiming it.

And here's Sarah Gannam, who's still the Dr.

Fauci of this case.

I'm the Rand Paul to Sarah Ganham.

Unfortunately, I'm not a U.S.

senator, so no one's paying attention to me.

But this woman should be, this woman's credibility should be completely destroyed.

And this is someone the news media put on the pedestal as a heroine.

She's a fraud, and it's happening constantly in this media environment.

But again, we're not going to talk about the Sandusky thing.

You're the only person I know that can wind yourself up.

You just like, hey, John.

Hey, John, how are you doing?

I'm doing pretty good.

You're like, I'm doing pretty good.

I'm doing pretty good.

But let me tell you about the Sandusky thing.

And then by the end, you're like foaming at the mouth.

And all I said was, what's going on?

But isn't that an amazing story?

It is.

It is.

And that is the problem with the media.
